NCT05304234

Brief Summary

We are performing a pilot and feasibility randomized controlled trial (RCT) of HCC screening by US + AFP every 6 months (n=100), the current standard-of-care, versus aMRI + AFP every 6 months (n=100) for 12 months (i.e. at time 0, 6 and 12 months) among AI/AN patients with cirrhosis or HBV.
